Irv Was a Prince, and I Was Married to His Beautiful Daughter...

Previously, Chapter 28: Could It Be That I Had Found My Home At Last?  When Irv wasn't sending me out to do small jobs on my own, he and I were working together, installing steam boilers, remodeling kitchens and baths, and repairing old threaded brass water mains and even older cast-iron drains.

When the Moon Hits Your Eye Like a Big Pizza Pie, That's Amore!

On Friday, I wasn't planning on doing much else besides laundry. I had a decent week. I mowed the lawn, went grocery shopping, and wrote what I thought were a couple of pretty good blogs.

Could It Be That I Had Found My Home At Last?

It's You and Me Forever...

Longtime Toolies: Vindog Unboxes A New Table Saw

Recently someone commented, "Vindog's been at Barstool just long enough for a cup of coffee", and that person was right. I officially became a full-time employee on February 8, 2020. So, in about a month it'll be one year. In that time I've been involved in a lot of Barstool activities. In addition

Boston born (can't you tell by the accent?) Die-hard Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics, and Bruins fan! I once pissed off Jim Rice! I've been in more basements than mildew. I roamed the planet for 63 years before I ended up here...
